Nothing really. The official logo for Java is the coffee cup, but the colours vary based on what product they're linked to, or on what medium that logo is shown. The Java website shows the logo with a red background, but that is pretty much just to better match the website design. The official colour logo is on a white background, where the black variants are usually reserved for newspaper prints. For more official information, check out their official Logo guidelines here. That document highlights their stances on what is acceptable and what isn't.

Aha, I see. The simple answer is no. The logo is the coffee cup as is mentioned in the guidelines I provided. The character you're referring to is Duke. Duke is Java's mascot, originally developed by the people at Sun microsystems before Oracle took Java over. For the full history, check out Orcale's page: Duke, the Java Mascot
